AUTEL IM608 PRO | How to do All Keys Lost on Audi A4 2015

[@skinner4531]

Amen. Please listen to Curtis about believing you can do this work believe in yourself. Another awesome video

[@jakobgrey804]

The biggest concern I have with European vehicles is finding out what tools I need for the job and the process. Yes I have the IM608 but besides the Autel support that tells me what I can do, that list doesn’t tell me required tools for the job or module locations. When you have a customer on the phone, it’s easier to say no because there’s so much unknown.

[@cydorraveloson776]

Thanks for sharing, it's very informative. You are right, without watching your video, for sure I would have refused this job. My concern is how to find the location of the BCM, I'm talking about other vehicles. I come from very far away and I only speak French, luckily we have the technology to do the translation. Thank you very much and good continuation to you.

[@gersonrendon2188]

I recently got called for a 2016 Audi A5 and followed these steps but it never read the data or vehicle information. I think my soldering wasn't the best or maybe the power supply I tried to use wasn't good. However I'm not giving up, I recently did a 2014 328i with the FEM system and it took me several hours but I ended up with 350 USD in my pocket and a happy customer👍🏼

@@gersonrendon2188 Yes sometimes you will be dearer than the dealership or a competitor but never sell yourself short, cover your time and investment as a professional sell great service and you will make more money.

[@bioweaponsystem154]

There's a lot of complexity to the base systems the European vehicles tend to have. You can also run into having people who bought them from a scrap wreckers with unknown history or maybe they had the car go bust so they brought it to a shop. Expensive to work on, expensive to maintain, expensive if you mess up anything. It's a balance of risk/reward. These videos certainly help install confidence though.

Is it the same process to add key? Or add key can be done obd2? Thanks

[@keykinglocksmith5284]

Hi This is not possible with VAG GROUP cars in the UK we are still blocked from doing CS calculations on server . Its a shame that I bought the tool and 6 months later we were not able to carry out key programming for vag group cars after 2013 . Have autel managed to figure out a way to implement CS bite calculations for the uk market again ? I heard Autel did so for the US market after the initial server block but not the UK ? Any information would be greatily received .

[@lesmoyer]

Curtis, this was most informative. My issue is not so much the soldering, but knowing the locations of BCMs, ECUs, etc, on euro-cars... and now some of the newer US and Asia models. Is there a good source that provides the locations of these boxes, so I know where to go to pull them for the bench work? Is there a recommended set of diodes for the Autel to work with?

How do you sell the customer when the bcm may have been screwed already by the previous tech ?

[@AutelConsultancy]

Thats a difficult one. You have be able to prove that you didnt screw up the BCM. What I would do is scan the vehicle and save the diagnostic report right when you get the vehicle. This way you can see all the existing faults that where in the car when it arrived to you. After you save the initial report .. Then erase all the error codes . Then if any fault codes come up again.. then you know that those modules have an underlining condition. Then tell the customer that in order to do this procedure you need to fix the ( BCM) first.. If you dont then you wont be able to do the procedure.
